A heavy, monoline sans with compact proportions and rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Curves are broadly squared-off, with soft corners and generous interior rounding that keeps counters open even at very bold sizes. Stroke terminals tend to be blunt and horizontal/vertical, producing a stable, poster-like rhythm with minimal contrast and little calligraphic influence. Uppercase forms feel engineered and solid, while the lowercase stays simple and sturdy, with single-storey shapes and short, thick joins that emphasize mass over delicacy.
Best suited to display contexts such as headlines, posters, brand marks, labels, and wayfinding where strong presence and quick readability matter. The rounded, blocky forms also work well for playful packaging and bold UI callouts, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is confident and approachable: bold enough to feel assertive, but softened by rounded geometry that reads friendly rather than aggressive. Its chunky silhouettes and squared curves add a retro-industrial flavor that suggests utility, signage, and playful display work.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a softened, geometric voice—combining compact, squared curves with consistent stroke weight to create a sturdy, modern display sans that remains approachable.
Figures are weighty and highly legible, with simplified shapes and consistent stroke thickness that help them hold up in large sizes. The texture is dense and even, making it especially effective where strong letterforms are needed to stand out against busy backgrounds.
